Environmental Science and Technology
by Lllionois DanvilleA natural resource is a naturally occurring material or organism that supports life, provides fuel, or is used in other ways by humans. We cannot make natural resources, but we certainly use them in many ways. Some natural resources are essential for living, such as oxygen and water; other natural resources are used in manufacturing other items, such as iron into automobiles. The wise use of resources is important. For example, cropland, grassland, woodland, and other land types must be used properly. Keeping our land productive is a major challenge. Productive land ensures healthy people and a strong nation.

Environmental Science for AP®
by Andrew Friedland Rick RelyeaFriedland/Relyea Environmental Science for AP* was written specifically for the AP* Environmental Science (APES) course, directly addressing the needs of APES students and teachers from beginning to end. Lead author Dr. Andrew Friedland of Dartmouth College was the founding Chair of the College Board committee that created the APES course. He regularly teaches Introduction to Environmental Science at Dartmouth and is actively researching environmental science topics related to air pollution and carbon accumulation in forests. The Friedland package uniquely prepares students for the quantitative aspects of the APES course in a way no other text does. In addition, it explores and explains every topic within the APES course description while offering a scientific and balanced approach to the key concepts. The Friedland text is praised for its accessibility and for familiarizing students with the findings that inform environmental decision making at all levels—from personal choice to national and international policy.

Environmental Science: A Global Concern
by William P. Cunningham Mary Ann CunninghamEnvironmental Science: A Global Concern is a comprehensive presentation of environmental science that emphasizes critical thinking, environmental responsibility, and global awareness. As practicing scientists and educators, the Cunningham author team brings decades of experience in the classroom, in the practice of science, and in civic engagement. This experience helps give students a clear sense of what environmental science is and why it matters. Environmental Science: A Global Concern provides readers with an up-to-date, introductory global view of essential themes in environmental science. The authors balance evidence of serious environmental challenges with ideas about what we can do to overcome them. An entire chapter focuses on ecological restoration; one of the most important aspects of ecology today. In this edition, Case Studies show examples of real progress and What Can You Do? lists give students ideas for contributing solutions. Includes Print Student Edition
Environmental Science: A Global Concern
by William P. CunninghamThis book is intended for use in a one- or two-semester course in environmental science, human ecology, or environmental studies at the college or advanced placement high school level. Because most students who will use this book are freshman or sophomore nonscience majors, the authors have tried to make the text readable and accessible without technical jargon or a presumption of prior science background. At the same time, enough data and depth are presented to make this book suitable for many upper-division classes and a valuable resource for students who will keep it in their personal libraries after their formal studies are completed. The goal of this book is to provide an up-to-date, introductory view of essential themes in environmental science along with emphasis on details and case studies that will help students process and retain the general principles.
